Hello, sorry for being vague on composition.
Right now I'm running Panda (leader), Colleen, Lanett, Wayne.

I managed to clear Necro 10 using a friend's rep monster, but I'm undecided on what my last member should be.
One small issue that has arisen so far is that, Lanett + Panda don't deal nearly enough damage to Wayne if he gets stolen, thats why I was considering a Wind monster.

Also, thank you for the offer, I shall check out discord once I get home.

From the monsters you listed, I would definitely choose Yen for your last slot. She does great damage, has multi hits, built in vio, and a S1 slow that is very important for necro. She also has a better leader skill, damage is preferred over defense - easier to release stolen monsters, and necro boss gets stronger over time so you don't want the battle to drag on.

Also, I don't like Wayne that much, you should consider replacing him with Adrian. Adrian is like Wayne except he does more damage, has more multi hits, has additional debuffs, buffs crit rate as well, and has elemental advantage. The only advantage Wayne has over Adrian is.... nothing.

You do have a point that Adrian has more multi-hit on 1st than Wayne, however Wayne has ignore def on 1st for when shield is down and has the potential to deal a ton more multi-hits than Adrian with a higher ATK multiplier on his 2nd skill.

I'll probably try Yen since she is the closest to maxing.
Thanks for the advises, I'll post back once I have some results in.

Good luck destructicon, I think Yen is a good choice as well

I've never seen Wayne built to 6* actually, did you build him for necro? Use him anywhere else?

Wayne was actually my 2nd 6* monster, back when I didn't know any better. Back then he didn't have multi-hit on his 1st skill nor def ignore, and I knew he wouldn't fit in a dungeon comp so I planned to use him as a niche Arena and GW nuker. I used him a ton for his leader skill in GW by pairing him with Copper.

I only got the idea to use him in Necro about 2-3 months ago since I figured his multi-hit would be really strong and he has a speed buff. I haven't used him anywhere else, but to be honest, he has had crap runes till now, so that's probably another reason why I ignored him.

I'll try him in some Arenas, GW again and tell you how he does once his runes are maxed.

Wayne has the potential to do more damage and multi hit more but Adrian will do more damage and multi hits on average. For example, accounting for Wayne's built in vio on S2, he'll average 2.9 hits a turn on S2 compared to Adrian's guaranteed 4 hits a turn. If you want to compare multipliers, that's a total of 700% for Wayne and 800% for Adrian. This isn't even factoring in Wayne's elemental disadvantage and Adrian's elemental advantage. Wayne's S2 does have shorter cooldown but I'd argue Adrian's S1 is better too - again, averaging more hits and more damage. Ignore def does not make a huge difference because the boss should be def broken most of the time.

That being said, I'm always a big fan of monsters being used in multiple places, so if you can make Wayne work in GW as well then it makes sense to not have to build an Adrian.

After the last patch I saw chatter on reddit about people pairing Susano and Wayne together in GWO. Not sure who they use in the 3rd slot, maybe Kona to resurge Susano?

3rd slot has to be galleon, def break is still required in order to do any reliable damage.

Second testing phase of Live Arena just came out today, which added matchmaking to PvP. It's actually really fun, I'm constantly impressed by the quality of this game and the constant stream of new features and updates. And there's still more to come with the new raids that were mentioned a month ago.

I've played a lot of mobile games and this is definitely the best I've seen. I'm surprised more people aren't playing!

New dev note, crafting + new rune sets + rebalanced dungeon drops + higher max level/energy

Yay! Thoughts?

The new rune sets are going to be craft only, and require rift materials... that means that these will probably be more mid/end-game focused sets. Any ideas on what they'll be?

Also new event next week: https://m.withhive.com/customer/notice/17282

It sounds like a pain, unlike their normal casual events though. But Devilmon are rare and all...

You'll have to join the Global server to play with us. It shouldn't be an issue though, events are spread out to be friendly for most time zones, and we have EU players in our guild to keep you company while the Americans are sleeping :p

Welcome!

To start, you can look at post 3 in this thread. It's a pretty good idea of how to optimally approach the early game. Wind Pixie, Wind Gryphon, Water Garuda, Fire Harpu are some early, easily acquired monsters to look for. Light Inugami is found in "Secret Dungeons", which pop up from time to time in the elemental dungeons, at random. Most likely you'll need to ask around to get that dungeon. It's their way of promoting some interaction in the game.

Keep fusion monsters, as you want to work towards Veromos, the most important fusion in the game, and perhaps the others if you find the time/effort.

When you start summoning more monsters 3*+, feel free to ask us their viability. Chug through the story, and add some of our guild as friends, as we have developed friend rep monsters that can solo through a bunch of the scenario content. I'll add you now, and there are other names on the first post
